Cause it only breaks my heart

To see you going through this

To see you going through this

And there's nothing that I can do.

And it only breaks my heart

You don't have to do this

I've got nothing to hold on to.

'Cause you keep slipping away

A little bit more everyday

Now feels like I'm running in place

You keep slipping away away

Just when I get you alone

It feels like I'm on my own

Like the tears running down on your face

You keep slipping away away

You keep slipping away.

And it only makes me sad

I think we almost made it

Girl we almost made it

You know as well as I.

And I take you in my arms

Pull you close to me

But every time I try.

you keep slipping away

A little bit more everyday

Now feels like I'm running in place

You keep slipping away away

Just when I get you alone

It feels like I'm on my own

Like the tears running down on your face

You keep slipping away away

You keep slipping away.

Should I give up? Should I let go?

My mind says yes but my heart says no

My heart says no, my heart says no.

'Cause you keep slipping away

A little bit more every day now

Feels like I'm running in place

You keep slipping away away cause

You keep slipping away (oh you you).

'Cause you keep slipping away
